The bidding war for President Barack Obama's presidential library is expected to formally get underway next week.

Chicago, where the president spent his early career, is vying to put it somewhere on the South Side. New York, where he went to college, and his birthplace of Hawaii are also contenders. Like other presidential libraries, it's expected to be a big draw for tourists and create other economic spinoffs.

I know a person, fought in the Korean War, good guy, not a liberal. Voted for Obama in 2008 for one reason: skin color. He has said so and regretted it, however, I asked if he voted for Obama in 2012, he said “I had to, it would be admitting an error on my part.”
